Re: problem compiling kernel using make-kpkg
I have problem to compile the Linux kernel 2.0.28 using make-kpkg, here is a part of the screen dump, it didn't happen when I compiled 2.0.26 This is because the behaviour of GNU expr regexps in shellutils 1.14 has changed to be more POSIX-like, AND 2.0.28 has started using a different method to configure the sound driver which uses expr to parse the base address / irq. Fix: Edit scripts/Configure, find the lines using expr in the functions hex and int, put a backslash in front of the + or the ? you find in the expr line.

I know that this problem no longer exists on my system where I have installed shellutils v1.14-4 and libc5 v5.4.17-1. If you want a quick way to fix this problem you can make the following changes to the linux/scripts/Configure file. Change the line that reads if expr $ans : '0$\|-?[1-9][0-9]*$' /dev/null; then to if expr $ans : '0$\|-\?[1-9][0-9]*$' /dev/null; then Also change the line that reads if expr $ans : '[0-9a-fA-F]+$' /dev/null; then to if expr $ans : '[0-9a-fA-F]\+$' /dev/null; then -- Brian -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
